Justin Raimondo has an excellent column today that pretty much sums up how the war in Iraq is going so far. Apparently it’s not going to be the cakewalk that was promised at the beginning, but of course it’s the American soldiers and the Iraqis who get to pay the price for this, not the […]

Right now there’s really too much going on, and too much being said, for me to be able to keep up with posting about any decent percentage of it. To make matters even worse, I’ll be heading off on a trip in the middle of next week, so I’ll fall even farther behind! If you’re […]

“An airline passenger has complained to U.S. authorities that a government baggage screener left a note in his suitcase criticizing his lack of patriotism after finding a ‘No Iraq War’ sign inside his bag.” … “With some 15,000 to 20,000 folks at the rodeo drinking beer and having fun, things can get a little out […]
Yes, it’s another excellent This Modern World comic. Go read it! Oh, and this link doesn’t involve dealing with the Salon.com day pass, since it’s on a different site.
